    I really dont understand what makes this show special or why they would even put this family on tv in the first place. I mean maybe if it was a family of 6 midgets who lived in the middle of a big city. But theres only 3 midgets and they have 3 regular sized people to help them out. This show is called little people, big world but they separate themselves from the world because they are little. They moved to a farm for christ sake so that they dont have to live in the "big world". Plus the dad is soooo ANNOYING.. even his wife cant freaking stand him. He's so selfish and not to mention LAZYYY the only reason he wants things done all the time is because he doesn't even have to do them. He just orders everyone around all the time. They're just a normal family (with an annoying father)... i mean just put me on the TV.. i think ill be a little more interesting. This show is pointlesssss! Cancel this show and put more Jon and Kate Plus 8!!!!!moreless

    I loved the earlier seasons of LPBW and think they are well worth owning on DVD. The last couple of years have seen the show go in a different and not better direction. Seeing Amy struggle against Matt on finances was great and relatable, but now they have gone off the deep end with a huge remodel job, lavish vacations, and seemingly rewarding the kids for bad behavior. Somewhere along the way, it has gone from being about the family and more the "Matt & Amy: Look How Important We Are" show. I am tired of seeing episode after episode of Matt talking about what a smart businessman he is and trying to fashion himself the savior of Little People everywhere.moreless
  • I love this show. However Zach can be VERY disrepectful towards his dad. Children need to always remember that you may not like or agree with your parents at times, but you should always respect them. NO MATTER WHAT! Especially when america is watching.moreless

    I feel that this show is very informative and real.
    Amy does need help in cleaning the house. The kids are old enough to so this, without paying them. They made the mess so clean it up. You are blessed to have alot more than the average family. It appears that Zach takes alot of this for granted. Only because of the disrepectful way he occasionally speaks to his father. Amy you and your brother said once that your kids are monsters. This is sooooo true.
    However, they are good kids and you are blessed. Just always remember REPECT! in verything you say and do.
    Good Luck and always remember amercia is watching you.moreless

  • I reaaly enjoy this program because, although I'm not a dwarf, I am only 4 ft.10in. tall at thirty six years old. I can definately relate to the Roloff family. Besides that, it is just an all around good show.moreless

    Many people go through life with not ever really giving much thought to those of a shorter stature. They generally only think in reguards to their heighth level , which leaves those of us that are smallerto learn to accomodate ourselves somehow to their big world. When I first saw an episode of Little People, Big World, I was so amazed at just the fact that there were actually other people out there who were experiencing life from a shorter perspective , and not complaining about it, but letting the world gain awareness on the matter, it caught my attention.moreless
